Last month, I was invited to Syracuse University by the local affiliate of the Secular Student Alliance, where I spoke on the topic of atheism and morality. I’m happy to announce that video of that talk is now available, in three parts, which I’ve embedded below. The talk is about 25 minutes long, with Q&A following.

I realize the video is from an odd angle – my apologies for that. It was being recorded by two cameras, and one of them didn’t function as expected, so it was fortunate we had a backup. But even if you don’t have a clear view of my devastatingly handsome features, I think the audio is clear enough.

Thanks again to everyone at Syracuse for inviting me! I’ll soon be announcing additional speaking events for 2012 (including one especially exciting one!), so stay tuned to this blog for details.

How Rainn Wilson discovered sacredness
The hospital where Rainn Wilson’s wife and son nearly died became his own personal holy site. There, he discovered that the sacred can exist in places we least expect it. During his talk at A Night of Awe and Wonder, he explained how the awe we feel in moments of courage and love is moral beauty — and following it might be the start of our spiritual revolution.
